Inspiration

Shimmer In The Dark is fiction – fantastical fiction in places – but I have tried to ground the “science” wherever possible. Some of my research has generated themes in the book, at other times I have stumbled upon scientific articles published after writing that support some of my more outlandish ideas. We know so little about the richness of our universe, I have to wonder if any idea exists that is not possible somewhere out there, in a place beyond our human experience.

Here is a building collection of links to articles and websites that have inspired (and continue to inspire) me along the way.

SEDONA VORTEX: I have to emphasize again the word inspiration. My story brushes the complex investigations carried out at Sedona at a very high level. But this article is the reason I chose Sedona as the location for my protagonist to discover his mind’s propensity to skip across the universe: http://sedonanomalies.com/NASA-2003-tm212647.pdf
